The head of Zhen Dao Pai school
The head of the Daoist School Zhen Dao outside the territory of China is Vitaly Filbert.
Interest in the Eastern philosophy arrived to Vitaly in his early teen ages.
When he was 12-13, films about martial arts and Shaolin Monastery had a vogue. Already then, he realized that behind external skills shown a deep philosophical concept should stand, and began to study Buddhist and Daoist doctrines. While studying, a special focus has always been on ancient treatises, as on original source of philosophical notions.
Since 1995, Vitaly Filbert had attended different seminars of different Chinese Masters of Qigong and Taiji quan, and practiced hard.
In the spring of 1998, fate threw Vitaly together with a Chinese Master Lu Shi Yang – the patriarch of the Daoist School Zhen Dao. Under his leadership, he began and continues to the present day studying of the Daoist tradition, which includes: Qigong, Neidan (Internal Alchemy), Dao Yin, Taiji quan (Yang style) and Xingyi Quan. In this case, training was conducted in a full accordance with the traditional Daoist methods of knowledge transfer, which means a fairly rigid practice and strict implementation of all requirements of the Teacher.
In late 1999, Vitaly Filbert started teaching, in order to transfer his knowledge to people. Having started with basic techniques, practices became more and more comprehensive, together with own progress and advance of technique. In the course of the years, methods of teaching were improved, and many people have been convinced of its effectiveness from their own experience.
Vitaly studied Chinese in Beijing and participated in vocabulary enrichment in the largest Chinese-Russian and Russian-Chinese online dictionaries, BKRS and Zhonga.
Vitaly also continues to hold workshops and retreats in Daoist arts in various cities within the CIS, as well as annual retreats in China, where the total time of dynamic and meditative practices can be up to 9-11 hours a day.
Vitaly founded the first Daoist arts Centre in Ukraine in 2011, with the objective to expand knowledge of Daoist tradition and let the millennial art of “nurturing life” improve physical and psychological health to people who seek balance and harmony.
In 2013 Vitaly started dissemination of the Daoist School Zhen Dao teaching in the UK.
In 2016 Vitaly started dissemination of the Daoist School Zhen Dao teaching in the US.
Vitaly is the author of a book series on Daoist Cultivation, shedding light on various aspects of Daoist philosophy and methods of Self-development.

Book 1 of 20: Daoist Cultivation
Book 1 was updated to a second edition and released on April 8, 2025.
If you bought it before, contact the author via Facebook or Instagram for a free e-book.
This newly updated Second Edition of Daoist Cultivation, Book 1: Fundamental Theory and Philosophy offers a significantly refined and enriched reading experience. While the number of pages remains approximately the same, the content has been carefully restructured and expanded — many original illustrations were removed to create space for substantial new material and a more focused, in-depth presentation.
What’s New and Improved:-- Expanded Depth: Core principles such as the Three Treasures (Jing, Qi, Shen), the Three Dantian, and the Central Channel (Zhong Mai) are now explained with greater clarity and structure, guiding the reader through each stage of internal transformation.
-- Classical Sources: Original teachings and symbolism from classical Daoist texts — including the Xiuzhen Tu and Taijitu Shuo — are now fully integrated into the theoretical framework, showing their relevance to internal cultivation.
-- New Content: Entirely new chapters have been added, such as Levels of External Qi, Ling Qi, Hunran Yi Qi, and a revised and expanded presentation of Daoist Cosmology, connecting Neidan practice with cosmological unfolding.
-- Terminological Clarity: Terms such as Yuan Qi, Ling Qi, Zhen Qi, Zheng Qi, and Hunran Yi Qi are now clearly defined and contextualized. Key distinctions — such as between Pre-Heaven and Post-Heaven energies, or between Yuan Qi and Ling Qi — are clearly defined, with consistent Chinese terminology used throughout.
-- Visual and Conceptual Refinement: Though some illustrations were removed, new flowcharts, tables, and symbolic diagrams have been added to help readers internalize the structure and logic of Daoist theory.
Despite these additions, the book remains accessible to all levels — whether you are just entering the Daoist path or seeking a deeper framework to support your cultivation. This second edition presents a clearer, more mature articulation of the foundations of Daoist internal practice and serves as a practical companion to the unfolding series.
This book also provides detailed explanations of essential terms such as Qigong, Neigong, Neidan, Jing–Qi–Shen, Wu Xing, Ming Gong, and Xing Gong, making it an ideal resource for both beginners and experienced practitioners.
It presents the principles of Yin–Yang and Wu Xing (Five Phases) with a traditional lens, restoring the deeper meaning often omitted or misunderstood in modern interpretations.
Special attention is given to key topics such as:-- "The Gate of All Marvelous-Mysterious" — a vital inner state required for returning to the Primordial
-- "Centers and Channels" — a practical explanation of the Dantians, energy system, and meridians, including visual diagrams of the 12 primary and 8 extraordinary channels
-- "Building the Foundation", "Body Foundation", "Heart-Mind Foundation", and "Virtue Cultivation" — core stages for beginning the Daoist path
This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in traditional Daoist methods of self-development, as well as those practicing Qigong, Neigong, Neidan, or Taiji (Taichi).

This book is put together really well with key teachings being highlighted for emphasis. The author is clearly very knowledgeable in the science of self cultivation. A teacher is indispensable to one's practice but as the author points out, if one is sincere, heaven does take note of their efforts. I hope cultivators will not miss this book series and I, too, hope to finish it to refine my personal practice. People who practice Yoga, Qi Gong should not pass these up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just methods - a guide to essential stateReviewed in Germany on 17 August 2024
Verified Purchase
I started to learn Daoist methods about 5 years ago in the daoist center created by Vitaly in Ukraine, from his disciples. However, after the first half year of practice I moved to Austria for my master studies and had to continue on my own. Excited by inspiration and interesting effects I was experiencing, I was still practicing fanatically, but sometimes I felt like I am stuck in a wild forest, my emotions went out of control and soon my body got dry from exhaustion.
Unexpectedly, when I had no psychological powers left and even my physical health became unstable, I learned that Vitaly wrote a book. I didn’t use to read books on this topic and preferred just to investigate methods on my own experience, but that time reading was the only thing that left for me, so I decided to give it a try.
Most of information in the book was familiar to me from seminars I visited in Ukraine. However, while reading I sensed that there was something more than just information, as it magically helped me to return into so long forgotten peace and presence. I started practicing again, now on my own experience discovering how important is to have right intention, direction and state of mind.
About a year ago I had a conference in US, and decided to visit Vitaly in LA on my way back - this was the first time I was going to meet him in person. We had just few friendly conversations during hiking or watching the sea, but they brought a shift in the depth of my understanding I will never forget.
At that time Vitaly translated classic Daoist texts (his later books). Before I had barriers always stopping me from reading them - I was worried that will not get the right meaning and just waste my time - but this time they were broken as books contained Vitaly’s comments. Soon I decided to choose Daoist tradition as my main Path, and I am very thankful to Vitaly for sharing it with us.

Daoist Cultivation, Book 3: Ming Gong: Qigong, Neigong and Neidan: 1st Level of Inner Alchemy + Video
by Vitaly Filbert (Author)
4.9 4.9 out of 5 stars 17
This book was updated to the Second Edition and released on April 21, 2025.
If you bought it before, contact the author via Facebook or Instagram for a free e-book.
This expanded second edition of *Daoist Cultivation, Book 3* offers a comprehensive and structured guide to the foundational methods of Ming Gong (命功) — the cultivation of life energy, the body, and the spirit through Qigong (氣功), Neigong (內功), and the initial level of Neidan (內丹, Inner Alchemy).
This volume offers a practical and profound gateway into the living tradition of Daoist Internal Alchemy (Neidan, 內丹). Focusing on Ming Gong (命功)—the Cultivation of Life-Essence—this book provides step-by-step guidance in the foundational physical and energetic methods of Daoist practice, including:
- “Gathering the Qi of Heaven and Nature” (採天地之氣) – harmonizing with the natural forces to nourish vitality
- “Daoist Breathing Techniques” (道家吐納法) – cultivating Zhen Qi (真氣, genuine qi) through conscious breath
- “Zhan Zhuang” (站樁) – standing meditation to unify body, breath, and intention according to Daoist teachings.
- and other core Qigong and Neigong techniques that awaken, refine, and direct internal energy
At the heart of this book lies the first stage of Neidan, where practice transitions from basic energy work to inner transformation. Key methods include:
- “Stabilizing the Furnace and Setting Up the Cauldron” (安爐立鼎) – preparing the internal environment for alchemical refinement
- “Collecting the Ingredients” (採藥) – gathering the essential substances within the body and Qi system
- “Elixir Cultivation” (煉丹) – initiating the subtle inner fire to produce the inner elixir
This book also explains how Zong Qi (宗氣), Ying Qi (營氣), Wei Qi (衛氣), and Gu Qi (谷氣) are forming Zheng Qi (正氣, Upright Qi), the purified and upright energetic force necessary for deeper alchemical change.
What sets this book apart is its illumination of the subtle art of Xing Gong (性功)—the Cultivation of Original Nature—as an inseparable part of each Ming Gong method. True internal cultivation is not merely the circulation of energy but the simultaneous purification of the heart–mind and return to inner stillness.
Within every breath and movement lies the opportunity to gather: Calmness (靜, jìng) and Quietness (清, qīng) from Heaven and Nature - These essential spiritual qualities are often overlooked, yet they form the gateway to perceiving and connecting with Ling Qi (靈氣)—the spiritual resonance that links the practitioner with the Primordial Dao
To support your personal journey, this book includes:
- Clear, photo-illustrated step-by-step instructions for each practice
- An exclusive YouTube video playlist, allowing you to visually follow and embody the teachings in a safe and accurate way
Whether you are just beginning your exploration of Daoist cultivation or are a serious practitioner deepening your Neidan practice, this book will serve as a reliable companion and guide. Rooted in the classical principles, yet clearly structured for modern use, it opens the door to authentic transformation—of body, Qi, and spirit.

Daoist Cultivation, Book 6: Chapters on Awakening to the True Reality: The Daoist Classic
by Vitaly Filbert (Author)
5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 4
This book was updated to a second edition and released on May 1, 2025.
If you bought it before, contact the author via Facebook or Instagram for a free e-book.
About the Second Edition
This second edition of Awakening to the True Reality by Zhang Boduan (《悟真篇》) presents the first complete English translation of one of Daoism’s most essential works on internal alchemy (內丹, nèidān). Traditionally attributed to the Song dynasty adept Zhang Boduan (張伯端), the Wu Zhen Pian has guided generations of Daoist practitioners on the subtle process of refining Essence, cultivating Qi, and returning to the Original Spirit.
Building on the first edition, this expanded version offers greater precision, textual fidelity, and structural completeness. The entire classical Chinese text is included alongside a refined, line-by-line English translation. Each verse is accompanied by detailed commentary grounded in traditional Neidan doctrine, designed to clarify the symbolic language and alchemical transformations at the heart of Zhang Boduan’s teaching.
This edition also restores and explains the traditional structure of the Wu Zhen Pian, including:The Preface (前序), setting forth Zhang Boduan’s intentions;
The Diagram of the Elixir Chamber’s Precious Mirror (丹房寶鑑之圖), a symbolic image included in several influential later transmissions;
The Sixteen Regulated Quatrains (七言四韻一十六首), based on the symbolic number 二八一斤;
The Sixty-Four Verses (七言絕句六十四首), corresponding to the hexagrams of the Book of Changes (周易);
A series of symbolic lyric poems, including Twelve Verses in the Tune of "Moon over the West River" (西江月十二首), one Additional Verse (又一首) representing the intercalary month, and Five Quatrains (絕句五首) symbolizing the Five Phases (五行);
The Afterword (後序), reflecting on the purpose and limitations of transmission.
In addition, this second edition includes new Appendices and Supplementary Verses that expand upon Zhang Boduan’s teachings and place them in the broader context of Daoist inner alchemy. These additional texts—included in some traditional editions of the Wu Zhen Pian—provide further insight into symbolic correspondences, cosmological patterns, and the oral transmission lineages that shaped this classic text’s reception over the centuries.
Designed for both committed practitioners and readers seeking deeper insight into Daoist inner transformation, this edition remains faithful to the classical phrasing while offering accessible guidance through its layered wisdom. Whether approached as a sacred scripture, a spiritual manual, or a philosophical work, the Wu Zhen Pian continues to reveal new depths to those who read with clarity, sincerity, and perseverance.

About the Second Edition
This second edition of Daoist Cultivation, Book 7 presents a carefully revised and expanded version of the original work, deepening its clarity, structure, and contemplative resonance.
In this edition, the twenty-four essential instructions by Liu Yiming (劉一明) — one of the great masters of Daoist internal alchemy (Neidan) — are now integrated into a complete cultivation cycle. Each instruction is paired with a comprehensive commentary, followed by an original poetic verse from the Collected Songs of Silent Cultivation in the Way of the Elixir (丹道靜修歌集). These verses, written in the Daoist tradition, echo and express the heart of each teaching through symbolic and intuitive language.
The second edition introduces a new feature: Silent Ripening Style commentary. These meditative reflections follow each song and distill the inner meaning of the chapter in a tone of quiet guidance, allowing the teaching to resonate beyond the words. Each chapter also concludes with a Daoist Terms Table, offering clear definitions, Chinese characters, and pinyin for all essential concepts.
This edition refines the structure of the book into a rhythm of study and contemplation:
- Liu Yiming’s original instruction
- In-depth commentary on the instruction
- Matching cultivation song

Daoist Cultivation, Book 8: Dao De Jing by Lao Zi: The Daoist Classic - Tao Te Ching

4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars 6
The second edition was released on January 10, 2025.

If you're looking for more than just a translation — and want a profound commentary from the perspective of Neidan (Internal Alchemy) — then take a look at Book 15 in this series: Dao De Jing: The Dao of Inner Alchemy – A Neidan Guide to the Classic of the Way and Virtue: https://a.co/d/jegC33G
Dao De Jing is the most famous Daoist text, written by Lao Zi 2500-2300 years ago. Many translations exist, so you might wonder: Why do I need another?
I’d like to explain my reason for creating this translation. After sharing a section about breathing techniques from my Book 1 on Facebook, someone commented that "Dao De Jing, chapter 55, expressly warns against interfering with the breath." I replied that this was incorrect and that breathing techniques are part of Daoist teachings. The commenter then referenced the Gia-fu Feng translation. Upon checking the translation, I found the line, "Controlling the breath causes strain." However, when I looked at the original Dao De Jing, I noticed the word "breath" wasn’t present; instead, the character Qi (氣) was inaccurately translated as "breath." Moreover, this line contradicts the other statements in Chapter 55, which highlight benefits for a person, making the translation misleading.
The original line 心使氣曰強 means "Using the mind-heart to control Qi is strong and powerful." This has a different meaning. Despite over a hundred English translations, many can be misleading. I couldn't check them all, so I decided to translate it myself.
_
For those who know Chinese, here is a detailed analysis:
In chapter 55 we have the next 4 lines:
知和曰常
知常曰明
益生曰祥
心使氣曰強
These lines follow a structure: if X, then Y. They likely convey a similar meaning, whether positive or negative. Given the preceding sentences in Chapter 55 outlining benefits, their meaning should align.
知 和 曰 常 - Knowing harmony is called constancy
知 常 曰 明 - Knowing constancy is called enlightenment
Translation is clear; no analysis needed. Next two:
益生日祥
益 - benefit; increase; prosperous. It relates to hexagram 42 (increase) with a positive meaning. Also means “gradually.”
生 - life. In ancient times, health and longevity methods were called 養生 (yang sheng), meaning "nourishing life.” The combination of 生 and 益 ("increase, benefit") suggests that this phrase refers to life-nourishing methods, connecting to the next line featuring the character 氣 (Qi - energy)
日 - call; name
祥 - main meaning: “good luck, happiness.” Rarely, it relates to funerals: 'Xiaoxiang' (小祥) is the first anniversary of a parent's passing, while 'Daxiang' (大祥) is the second. This meaning contrasts with 益, so we focus on its primary meaning: “good luck, happiness.”
I want to highlight Chapter 78, which includes the phrase 受國[之]不祥, translating to "Whoever takes upon himself the misfortunes of the world." The character 祥 typically has a positive connotation, but with 不 (not), it shifts to "misfortunes," emphasizing its primary meaning. This supports my translation of 益生曰祥 - "Benefiting life is called luck/happiness" - and its link to the next line 心使氣日強
心使氣日強
心 - heart-mind
使 - to make, to cause, to enable, to use, to employ
氣 - Qi. This character reinforces the assumption that the line refers to "yang sheng" methods, where Qi-energy is actively used
日 - call; name
強 - strong, powerful, better, vigorous, violent
“Using the mind-heart to control Qi is called being strong and powerful.”
Thus, we have established connection between these two lines and their positive meaning: “Benefiting life is called luck/happiness. Using the mind-heart to control Qi is called being strong and powerful.”

Daoist Cultivation, Book 12 - The Secret of the Golden Flower: Translation and Commentary
by Vitaly Filbert (Author) , Dongbin Lu (Author)
4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars 8
This book was updated to the Second Edition and released on May 19, 2025.
If you bought it before, contact the author via Facebook or Instagram for a free e-book.
The Secret of the Golden Flower is one of the most widely known Daoist texts in the West. It offers a symbolic and meditative presentation of Daoist internal alchemy (Neidan), blending elements of Daoist cosmology, Buddhist meditation methods, and Confucian insight into a unified path of inner transformation.
This newly revised second edition presents a complete and faithful translation of the entire original text—including chapters 9 through 13, which were omitted in early Western versions. It also offers expanded and refined commentary throughout, designed to support readers who are sincerely pursuing the Way of cultivation.
Why This Edition Is Needed
The first English translation, completed in 1929 by Richard Wilhelm and accompanied by commentary from Carl Gustav Jung, played a major role in introducing the text to the Western world. However, Wilhelm’s version contains numerous mistranslations, interpretive liberties, and doctrinal misunderstandings. Crucially, it omits the final five chapters of the original text entirely. Jung’s psychological commentary, while influential in Western circles, is based on Wilhelm’s flawed translation and thus misrepresents the actual teaching of Daoist inner alchemy.
A later version by Thomas Cleary improved the clarity and readability, but replaced many traditional Daoist technical terms with modern abstractions. For instance, Yin 陰 and Yang 陽 are translated as “negative energy” and “positive energy,” stripping away the rich cosmological and alchemical significance those terms carry. Cleary’s version also paraphrases or omits important phrases, diminishing the text’s precision.
What This Version OffersA complete and accurate translation, including chapters 9–13, missing from previous editions
Preservation of classical Daoist terminology, such as Qi 氣, Shen 神, Dantian 丹田, Yin 陰, Yang 陽, and Zhen Qi 真氣
Extensive commentary that explains symbolic language, cultivation practices, textual origins, and translation choices
Clear indication of Buddhist and Confucian references within the text, including Tiantai methods like Zhǐ Guān 止觀
This edition is written for serious students and practitioners—those who wish to go beyond metaphor and psychological interpretation, and instead enter the living stream of authentic Daoist cultivation. Whether you are encountering the Golden Flower for the first time or seeking a more complete and traditional understanding, this edition offers clarity, depth, and integrity rooted in the internal alchemical tradition.

3.3 3.3 out of 5 stars 3
This book was updated to the Second Edition and released on May 25, 2025.
If you bought it before, contact the author via Facebook or Instagram for a free e-book.
This revised and expanded second edition of Daoist Cultivation, Book 13: The Art of Sleeping presents a complete and carefully integrated system of Shui Gong (睡功)—the ancient Daoist practice of sleep-based cultivation and inner alchemical dreaming.
Building on the foundational teachings of Inner Alchemy (內丹, nèidān), this edition includes:
- Refined translations of classical texts by Chen Tuan, Zhang Sanfeng, Lü Dongbin, Wang Daoyuan, and other Daoist masters, capturing the subtle meanings and poetic nuance of the originals.
- Line-by-line commentary on all texts presented in the book, offering a step-by-step guide to sleep-based cultivation.
- Clear distinction between Ordinary Dreams, Lucid Dreams, and True Dreams, grounded in Daoist cosmology and spirit physiology.
- New instructional chapters on pre-sleep posture, whole-body breathing, intention-setting, and returning with clarity.
- Insightful integration of concepts like Yuan Shen (元神), Hun and Po Souls (魂魄), and the principle of “Desire without desire”.
This edition is intended for practitioners who already have a foundation in the Daoist path—especially those familiar with Xing Gong (性功) and Elixir Cultivation as presented in Books 1–3 of this series. It is not a dreamwork manual in the modern psychological sense, but a gateway into the profound spiritual uses of the sleep state as practiced in traditional Daoist inner alchemy.

It also clarifies topics such as:
Why Faith and Respect play a significant role in Daoist Cultivation.
How to eliminate causes, in other words, how to deal with karma and make the right decisions in your life that will support your practice.
How you should use your heart-mind to achieve a state of Calmness and Quietness.
How can you correctly analyze things and life situations, and how can this affect your Cultivation?
The correct point of view on what you really need for your practice.

Dao De Jing: The Dao of Inner Alchemy: A Neidan Guide to the Classic of the Way and Virtue (Daoist Cultivation)
by Vitaly Filbert (Author) and 2 more
5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 1
This is not a traditional commentary on the Dao De Jing. It is not academic, nor historical, nor philosophical in the usual sense. This book is a companion for those walking the inner path— a guide to the quiet work of Neidan, or inner alchemy.
Each chapter of the Dao De Jing is explored through the lens of Daoist cultivation, drawing out its deeper meaning as it applies to body, energy, heart-mind, and spirit.
Rather than focusing on outward moral teachings or abstract theory, this book follows the hidden thread of transformation— how the ancient words point toward stillness, softness, and the return to what is natural and whole within you.
You will find:
• Detailed Neidan (inner alchemy) readings rooted in classical Daoist cultivation
• Line-by-line breakdowns that unpack each verse’s layers of paradox, imagery, and insight
• A balance of poetic reflection and practical depth
• Explorations of Doing that returns to Non-Doing, and of emptiness that gives rise to power
Whether you're drawn to the Dao De Jing as poetry, as philosophy, or as a guide for inner transformation, this book offers something rare: a bridge between timeless depth and everyday clarity.
